Three milestones shape the story
On July 16, 2026, JPMorgan maintained a TWD 120.00 price target for Far EasTone, according to Investing.com. On August 6, 2026, Far EasTone posted second-quarter revenue of TWD 28.66 billion and earnings per share of TWD 1.11, with earnings per share 19.00 percent higher than a year earlier, according to Winvest. The latest milestone came on October 12, 2026, when September revenue reached TWD 10.96 billion and first-nine-month revenue reached TWD 86.23 billion, as reported by TechNews.
What does the growth mean?
The monthly increase matters because it extends a broader revenue trend into the third quarter of 2026. September revenue was 14.80 percent higher than August, while first-nine-month revenue rose 11.00 percent year over year. The second-quarter earnings result adds a profitability signal: earnings per share reached TWD 1.11, compared with TWD 1.03 in the first quarter and 19.00 percent above the year-earlier figure. JPMorgan's TWD 120.00 target provides a valuation reference, but the target was dated July 16, 2026 and predates the September revenue update.
